speak_v well_o and_o when_o they_o speak_v ill_o whereas_o they_o that_o be_v ignorant_a of_o
the_o rule_n take_v any_o latin_a for_o good_a be_v it_o never_o so_o barbarous_a or_o full_a of_o solaecisme_n and_o partly_o because_o they_o that_o be_v skilful_a in_o grammar_n be_v able_a to_o do_v something_o in_o read_v author_n or_o translate_n or_o write_v epistle_n or_o the_o like_a by_o themselves_o whereas_o they_o that_o learn_v latin_a without_o any_o rule_n be_v able_a to_o do_v

his_o mind_n yet_o i_o conceive_v it_o be_v the_o ready_a way_n to_o the_o gain_n of_o this_o language_n to_o join_v assiduity_n of_o speak_v and_o read_v and_o write_v and_o especial_o double_a
